    I came from a 9810 to a Z10...and I will never look back. Tell her to check out the forum, and view at the screen shots of available features.

    It also depends if she wants a keyboard or not? that is the real question because the z10 does have a great touch keyboard a physical one is better in my opinion

    just Z10. without any discussions and questions!

    that's the same as to ask: new Mercedes or old VW Golf?

    Z10 is much much better!!! and it does not need BIS.
    I came from 9780 Bold. I thought I'll miss physical keyboard... i didn't.

    I flick words faster than I can type on physical keyboard. On a 9810, using the virtual keyboard was decent, but the physical shined. Especially for blind texting. But a side by side of typing on my Q10 and typing on my Z10...typing on the Z is faster.

    I agree typing on the z 10 is fast but I just prefer a physical keyboard

    Well here is my opinion. Both have pros and cons. Older bbOS device simply work with few or any glitches however the speed and browser are terrible. Newer BlackBerry 10 devices like the Z10 blow the older ones away by speed and browser with a much smoother OS feeling however there are issues and glitches that may cause headaches at times.

    While your friends was a prior android user they will feel limited by an older BlackBerry but will enjoy a newer one with a risk of a few issues.

    I have yet to pull the battery on my Q10. I haven't spent half my day watching the spinny thing on the Torch.

    I had a Torch and liked it at the time, but BlackBerry 10 blows BBOS out of the water, no questions asked. I'm using a leak and while it has some bugs, it's much better than BBOS ever was for me.

    Definitely Z10. There are some great things about OS 7, but Z10 is an even better product. Better screen, better keyboard, better and more reliable OS. I have no issues with spinning clocks on my phone anymore just simple operation. All she needs to get used too is how the OS operates.

    Went from 9810 to z10 and then z30. Definitely no looking back for from the 9819.

    If your friend has the choice go with the z30, but otherwise z10 over the 9810 any day.
    Faster OS, bigger screen, faster browser, cooler apps and no special data plan required.

    The only down side with the z's is the lack of BIS.

    If she is planning on renewing or starting a contract, then she should see how much the Z30 is before you settle on a Z10. I have a Z10 and have used (fairly extensively) both devices and can say that in terms of overall usability/ comfort the Z30 wins. Then only thing that bothers me is the screen, its so weak compared the Z10's crisp LCD with really high ppi. Other than that, the Z30 has ridiculous battery life, top notch speakers, a tiny bump in processor speed/ better GPU, and obviously larger screen. If she is going the off contract road, may i suggest, if still is available, the Z10 unlocked directly from BlackBerry for $200. I just picked one up for my sister in white, hope she likes it.
